    My favorite Disney film is actually Mulan.

    But my favorite film as a kid was either The Sandlot or Stand By Me. I still watch those.

    Seriously, my favorite childhood film was " On The Town" with Frank Sinatra and Gene Kelly (1949).

    Yep. I could watch Gabey, Chip and Ozzie over and over again. (Musical)

    Star Wars is a huge memory at a long-gone cinema in the UK.

    Superman too, I remember walking out of that thinking I could fly :)

    I can't remember the name...something like The Incredible Mr. Limpet...I don't know...it was part cartoon and part real movie. It was the coolest thing I'd ever seen when I was a kid. I just loved it. That and Gremlins...and of course the Wizard of Oz.

    For my kids, we watched The Lion King about 6 million times.
    I had to buy the VHS three times because we wore it out twice.

    No 1 Lassie come home, still makes me cry now.
    No 2 The Jungle book, first movie even seen in a cinema.
    No 3 Call of the wild (1972) Charlton Heston, eh, I still remember him eating the bugs from under the bark of a tree.
    No 4 Mary Poppins, My kids love this one too.

    Drop Dead Fred

    Yes!! I LOVED this movie. I totally forgot about Drop Dead Fred... now I must make my kids watch it.

    I watched Cinderella and Little Mermaid all the time. I'd sing and dance around my room pretending to be Ariel.
